ABSTRACT=Abstract
Objective: To explore the prevalence and attributable burden of diet high in processed meat (DHIPM) in global, regional and national level due to the burden caused by unhealthy dietary pattern worldwide.
Design: Cross-sectional study
Materials and design: All the data involved in this research was obtained from Global Burden of Diseases Study 2019. DisMod-MR 2.1, a Bayesian meta-regression tool was used to estimate the prevalence, which was measured by summary exposure value (SEV), and attributable burden of DHIPM. The Spearman rank order correlation method was preformed to measure the correlation between socio-demographic index (SDI) and the prevalence as well as attributable burden. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was calculated to demonstrate the temporal trends.
Results: Globally, there were total 304.28 thousand deaths and 8556.88 disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) caused by DHIPM in 2019,increased by 34.63% and 68.69%, respectively. The prevalence had decreased slightly from 1990 to 2019 however increased in most regions and countries, especially in Middle SDI regions despite the implicitly high prevalence in High SDI regions. Countries with higher SDI values were facing higher prevalence and attributable burden of DHIPM while developing countries were observed with severer temporal trends. Compared with females, males had suffered from lower exposure level however graver attributable burden of DHIPM in the past three decades.
Conclusion: The progress of continuous urbanization allowed increasingly severer prevalence and attributable burden of DHIPM, thus the challenge to alleviate this trend was acuter. Effective measures such as education on beneficial dietary pattern and supplement on healthy food were in urgent required, especially in developing regions and countries.
